London Fashion Rocks

Rick Owens, a design God, comes from LA and lives in Paris making leather jackets, worked black garments and just general dark and progressive fashion. He’s his own poster child, really:

The good thing is he has teamed up with Eastpak knapsacks to make some incredible collaborative pieces. Thank heaven for the recession and designers working with large retailers en masse. Here are some of the bags, from the line whose whole title is Rick Owens DRKSHDW Eastpak. What a mouthful for a bagful. Here’s the padded bag, the steamer bag, the bucket bag and the wristband.

I love the way the colors blend into one another, it’s really like a shadow or some kind of alien lifeforms’ bagform. really nice.
